Description

No matter how well your mask fits, the nightly pressure from the frame on the bridge of your nose can cause skin breakdown, pain and even sores. The Gecko Gel Nasal Pad from ResMed is a great sleep accessory that protects against skin irritation, red marks, sores and swelling, at the bridge of the nose, caused CPAP masks. In addition the smooth gel pad gradually moisturizes your skin and helps to prevent air leaks in the hard to fit areas at and around the top of the nose.

The Gecko Nasal Pad is made from a polymer gel material that is hypoallergenic, silicone free and latex free. To use it, simply apply the pad to your face and place your mask -- nasal or full face -- on over the pad. There are no adhesives! The winged design of the Gecko Pad covers the bridge of your nose and cheeks. Your mask to rests on the pad creating a comfortable, leak free seal.

When you awake after a refreshing nights sleep wash the pad with a mild soap and water and pat it dry for continued use or storage. With proper maintenance, a single Gecko Nasal Pad is designed to last for up to a month. Gecko Pads should be replaced routinely, just like standard mask cushions or headgear.

SIZING: Most CPAP users will wear the SMALL Gecko Nasal Pad. The Small Gecko measures 3.5 inches at its greatest width and 1.5 inches at its greatest height. The Large Gecko measures 4.2 inches at its greatest width and 2.0 inches at its greatest height.

Nose piece

This did not work for me as it cut off the air flow so I couldn't get my air through the tube I tried a lot of different directions and still couldn't get it to work for me. Written by Janet Kerfien, 2017-07-29

not good

this causes more air gaps and does not seal over the nose Written by poppy, 2017-05-20

Gel nose pad

Over priced .. I don't mind paying for s product that works. Very disappointed . Written by Sally, 2016-10-12

Too thick

The nasal pad was too thick and difficult to position under mask. Because of the pads thickness a good seal was impossible. Had it been thinner manipulation of the pad and perhaps the seal would have been complete.

Nose pad

It does not live up to what it promised. Written by HR, 2016-09-04

Snug

I really love these nasal pads. The ResMed Gecko Nasal Pad large works with my full face mask to give me a comfortable Snug fit with no leaks. Written by Kenny, 2016-08-31

Gecko Pad

Does not provide the protection from mask bruising and it does not stay in place. Very disappointed. Written by C. Ray, 2016-02-27

gecko gel nasal review

it stick the first night, but after I washed it with a mild soap and let it dry as instructed, it did not sick anymore. Thus, it was difficult to put in place since it falls. Written by A Martinez PhD, 2016-02-04

Don't waste your money on this!

Causes too much of a gap between the nose and the mouth portion of my full face mask. Way overpriced for what it is. I found that the best cushion is a piece of tshirt cut a little larger than the cpap cushion, then cut a hole where the mouth is. Free and reusable, it can be washed. Written by Brian, 2016-01-28

nose guard

I've tried everything and it will not stay on my nose. Written by joe, 2014-05-14

Not worth the price

I bought this Gel Nasal Pad for my husband to try with his MIRAGE QUATTRO Written by Abby, 2014-03-20

Great product - solved my problem

I wear a full face mask and chin strap, but I had leaking at the bridge of my nose (very narrow) and awful red marks in the morning. It's a production, but I use pads on the forehead braces, Remzees (doubled), the Gecko Gel Pad and Voila! No leaks, no red marks. When I saw it, I knew it would work - and it DOES!

Gel Nasal Pad for CPAP

Love the texture and how it feels on the nose. However, when cleaning, I've lost it twice. Therefore, I'd advise to "color" the pad to be seen easier. As far as solving the leakage, I'd rate it a 7 out of 10. Written by Debby, 2014-02-11

toxic odor

I did not like odor and I am not using it. I also did not like the way it felt. Written by Lois, 2013-10-22

Good fit

This nose protector is exactly the right size for my nose. It has kept me from getting a sore rubbed by my CPAP mask and that was exactly what I was trying to find. The boomerang style was not a good fit like this one is. Written by dk, 2013-10-17

Gel Nasal Pad

The Gecko Gel Nasal Pad has been a positive experience for my wearing of the Wisp head gear. My nose was getting increasingly irritated from the nose piece and I even switched to the larger nose piece. The gel pad has been a great improvement to the sleep mask and to my nose comfort. My only complaint is in putting it on. It is hard to hold it on your nose and place the nose piece on at the same time. Doesn't want to adhere to the nose. Written by Bryan, 2013-09-01

RESMED Gecko Gel Nasal Pad

It has worked for me, it prevents me from geting a mark on the bridge of my nose. I use a nasal mask only. I have used it for the last two years with no problem. It takes a while to adjust my mask but after that i get no air leaks, it is just a mater of playing with it. It is a great improvement that Resmed came up with. Keep up the good work Resmed, I just wish you had more distributers, I have no distributer in my area. I have my equipment shiped. I rate this product five star. Written by Jesus G. V., 2013-02-20

Does not work

Doesn't stay on the nose at all. Written by GlenG, 2013-02-07

not great

I've had a problem with sores on the bridge of my nose due to the cpap mask. Red and sore each morning. I got this gel pad at the suggestion of my supplier. I agree with all who have written it takes three people to try and get this gel pad to stay on your nose. Once it's on it has to be adjusted again to prevent leakage. If you have 45 minutes to play around with it you might get it to fit correctly. It does prevent the soreness on the bridge of my nose but does nothing for my cheeks. I'm glad I didn't have to pay for this but now my insurance paid for what is worth about .50 and got charged almost $25.00. Really Written by sharon, 2012-09-03

No Choice for bridge of nose padding

I have used a CPAP for nearly 5 years now and never missed a night. Needless to say, my area of concern is the bridge of my nose. I use the full faced ResMed mask. I have searched every site that I am aware of, and all that I see offered is the clear gel padding. It doesn't stick and I have difficulty getting my mask on before it falls off. I think I could make a FORTUNE if someone could come up with a product that works, but I am to old to start at this point. If any company or entrepreneur is interested, please consider putting your time, money, and genius into a product like this! Written by Mary Jo J., 2012-07-14

Nasal pads don't work!

Tried the nasalpad and it nearly drove me insane trying to get it to stay on my nose while applying my mask. I want go into detail but it just will not work unless you have someone to help you apply it and the mask. Will use a band aid or nothing, both of which are better! Written by EPJ, 2012-05-30

terrible

terrible product. who want to place a damp gel on their nose just to get it to stick. would not stay in place because most people have to adjust their mask during the night. let's see... they recommend replacing it every 30 days (24.95 x 12 =299.14) ... so 300.00 a year for a product that is inferior at best. no thanks. i'll just continue to use a bandaid. less expensive and works. i'm sorry i even wasted my time and money researching this product.
